SF: Nightlife at the California Academy of Sciences

Thursday, April 14, 2011

Every Thursday Evening, San Francisco's California Academy of Sciences opens their doors from to host Nightlife, an event for visitors ages 21+ [Read: no kids running around!]. For half the price of regular daytime admission, you can enjoy the academy's aquarium, planetarium, rainforest and other exhibits. Oh, did I also mention since this is a 21+ event, they serve beer, wine and cocktails - what's not to like about this?

DeYoung Museum sits across from the Academy in Golden Gate Park

Doors open at 6 PM and supposedly there's quite a line at the beginning. I wouldn't know though, because I actually didn't get there till 8:30 PM (woops). By the way, this late arrival isn't recommended because most of the main attractions are closed by then. Another lesson learned. However, if you do plan to arrive early, I suggest buying your tickets online to avoid potential wait time.

Not Nemo

Clearly, I am easily amused with colorful sea creatures and harassing them by sticking my camera all up in their gill... :) Ha Ha. Today is Thursday, so what are you waiting for? Go check this out!
